This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

The Sun In The Stream

by Enya

transcribed by Ed Westberg (westberg@vuse.vanderbilt.edu)

Yes, I know that Enya probably has not used guitar on any of her albums

but I think this one sounds really nice and is easy to play on guitar.

The tab is for the melody (a bagpipe I think).

I like playing this with distortion, employing vibrato with the bar to

simulate the inflections produced in the original recording.

~~~~~~ = vibrato

^ = hammer-on or pull-off

/ or \ = slide

G = Grace Note
